Haskell programmers publish a great deal of research
at conferences, which are also great places to meet and discuss
Haskell and its future. The following is a list of some of the
conferences at which Haskellers and their research appears.

1 The Haskell Workshop

The Haskell Workshop is an annual workshop organized in affiliation with
the International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP). The
workshop is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM)
under the aegis of the ACM Special Interest Group on Programming
Languages (SIGPLAN).

The purpose of the Haskell Workshop is to discuss experience with
Haskell, and future developments for the language. The scope of the
workshop includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory,
application, implementation, and teaching of Haskell.

2 The International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP)

ICFP (International Conference on Functional Programming) is an annual
programming language conference. It is sponsored by the Association for
Computing Machinery under the aegis of the ACM Special Interest Group on
Programming Languages (SIGPLAN), in association with Working Group 2.8
of the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP).

3 Commerical Users of Functional Programming (CUFP)

The goal of CUFP is to build a community for users of functional
programming languages and technology, be they using functional languages
in their professional lives, in an open source project (other than
implementation of functional languages), as a hobby, or any combination
thereof. In short: anyone who uses functional programming as a means,
but not an end
